Port Mirroring




















Port Trunk – State Activity interface


The Port mirroring is a method for monitor traffic in switched networks. Traffic through

ports can be monitored via one specific port. That means traffic goes in or out monitored

(source) ports will be duplicated into mirror (destination) port.

¢ Destination Port: You can select one port to be the destination (mirror) port

for

monitoring both RX and TX traffic which come from source port. Or, use one of two

ports for monitoring RX traffic only and the other one for TX traffic only. User can

connect mirror port to LAN analyzer or Netxray

¢

Source Port: The ports that user wants to monitor. All monitored port traffic will be

copied to mirror (destination) port. User can select multiple source ports by checking

the RX or TX check boxes to be monitored.
